Sir:

I am in receipt of your communication of 8th instant relative

the suspended Superintendent's method of falsifying accounts, and
asking instructions as to forwarding the same to the Department
with your report.

In response there to you are directed that such books and
papers in your possession relating to the matters of the Genoa
Indian Training School, which you have been and are investigating,
as are necessary for the proper understanding of your report to be
made, should be forwarded to the Department therewith.

Your report and all accompanying documents should be sent to
the Department by mail, registered if necessary. Any express
charges incurred by you should be prepaid.

Very respectively,
